Vacuum tank, make it or buy it?
Hi again!

With the ITB's in mind, I should assemble some kind of vacuum tank to receive vaccum from the T3 adapter and then connect to the MAP sensor and brake booster.

I've been looking but I can't find no companies who sell this kind of gadget, but maybe I'm using the wrong words to look for it!

Thank you!

Best regards

go to your local scrapyard and look under the bonnet of a Starlet P7 or P8, most of them have a big, black vacuum container Smile

something like this:

This is P7, P8 starlets have a smaller container, just for ignition advance and brake booster, so should be ideal for you Smile

That is some great advice. I say if you can;t locate one just buy it.

I was talking to Gabe about this quite recently and he recommended one from a US company but I have lost the link which I had saved on my old mac which has died. It was also quite cheap.

There is also a company called s-max that make them.

Do a google search for 'vacuum distribution block'.
